The first coin came with a box, which i liked. second one came in the wooden box. third coin came in a cardboard shell.i like keeping my coins in the small boxes. i don't like the idea of having only one choice…. everything has to go into the wood box.find it a cheap way for the mint to cut costs.

Just received this coin,the third installment in the Great Lakes set.Each coin is so beautiful,and this one certainly holds it's own with the previous coins.I especially love the unique way that the lakes are portrayed, you can almost feel the cool water and imagine the depth of various areas of the lake.Each time one of these coins arrive I open it like a child opening a gift on Christmas morning because even though I got what I asked for,it is more beautiful and amazing when I can actually hold it in my hands and carefully take in all the techniques that were employed to make these one of a kind coins.I shouldn't write reviews late at night because I don't think I'm doing the set justice,but I am absolutely a fan of this set, can't wait to see the remaining coins.
